Redbud Trees Pink Heartbreaker

Pink Heartbreaker® Weeping Redbud (Cercis canadensis ‘Pink Heartbreaker’) - Height: 10-12 ft, Width: 8-10 ft. Bloom Time: Early to Mid-Spring. Pink Heartbreaker® Redbud is a beautiful ornamental tree known for its graceful, weeping branches covered in vibrant rosy-pink flowers in early spring before the foliage emerges. Its large, heart-shaped green leaves create a lush, cascading canopy throughout summer, turning attractive shades of yellow in fall. The distinctive weeping form makes it an excellent focal point for smaller yards, garden beds, entryways, and accent plantings. Its mature height can vary depending on how the central leader is trained. Plant in full sun to partial shade in moist, well-draining soil. Water regularly during establishment and mulch around the base to help retain moisture. Minimal pruning is needed beyond removing dead, damaged, or crossing branches, preferably after flowering.

Maintenance Tip:
Prune just after flowering to maintain shape and remove dead or crossing branches. Water regularly during establishment and during dry spells, and apply mulch to retain moisture. Fertilize lightly in early spring and monitor for stress in extreme heat or drought conditions.
